Review
'There are 2 sets of pronunciation recorded – English and American. This is an excellent feature. The possibility for teachers to set up research tasks for their students is absolutely endless. The prices of electronic dictionaries are plummeting and I would suggest that this one is an essential purchase.' EL Gazette
